Elder Nether Spring's eyes suddenly turned so deep that they seemed to be piercing through the Fire Ant and the core of the planet to the infinite distance. "You will know very soon!"
While he was talking, his aura expanded abruptly like a volcanic eruption. Every corner of the splendid underground temple was filled by his aura and turned into a narrow matchbox!
Even Li Yao, who was observing in secret through Neltharion, was awed by the intimidating aura. The hair on his back was standing up, and his spine was cracking. His fighting will was surging inside his veins like fire!
The few elites of the Blade of Chaos next to Li Yao naturally did not have such keen senses. But they also sensed that a boundless horror was slowly leaking down through the rocks that were almost a hundred meters thick, making them feel that they were in an impenetrable coffin with nowhere to run to!
The few elites of the Blade of Chaos could not help but tremble with their teeth clattering.
Inside the underground temple, the Fire Ant's aura was exploding like a surging tide, too. Together with his roars, the front ends of the two antennae on his head blossomed like buds.
Eight enormous pillars of fire suddenly rose up from the soil below his feet!
The pillars of fire surrounded the Fire Ant and danced crazily like eight giant snakes. Then, they intertwined and condensed above his head!
Some of the fire snakes crawled to the Fire Ant's body and interweaved into a glamorous armor of fire. But more of the fire snakes formed an overwhelming giant that opened its bloody mouth at Elder Nether Spring!
"Hoooo!"
The roars of the fire giant raised intense ripples in the air, as if an air cannon had exploded all of a sudden.
Even the powerful 'Nether World Watch' that Elder Nether Spring had brought and modified with the demon cores backed off in front of the intimidating aura!
Elder Nether Spring's smile remained unchanged. He said casually, "So, you were intentionally stalling while you summoned the biochemical beasts in secret."
"Exactly!"
The Fire Ant grinned hideously. "Brother, this is what I've been doing for ten years. The Ten Thousand Fiery Ants, which had been created using countless natural treasures and strengthening medicines, would probably only be able to get close to his big brother's Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes and Multicolored Locusts. They are all going to be annihilated! "
Li Yao observed carefully and discovered that the armor on the Fire Ant's body and the flame giant behind him were not real flames, but countless crimson ants!
Li Yao took a risk and activated his telepathic thoughts. He increased the scanning ability of Neltharion to the maximum.
He discovered that the crimson ants were each the size of a thumb. They had hideous horns and heavy shells. They were dozens of times more ferocious than the 'Purple Ring Sword Ants' that he was most familiar with.
Natural spiritual stripes in the shape of swirls were growing on their shells and wings. Judging from the direction and overlapping structure of the spiritual stripes, they were meant to enhance the power of fire!
Even if there was only one Ten Thousand Fiery Ant, once it entered a person's stomach, it would probably burn their internal organs to ashes.
The Fire Ant could actually create tens of millions of Ten Thousand Phantom Fire Ants. They could even be controlled by his telepathic thoughts. It was truly horrifying!
Li Yao was secretly alarmed. He had a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the biochemical beasts.
If he were to face the Fire Ant, even if the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was fully activated, he might not be able to gain much of an advantage. The odds of winning the battle would still be fifty-fifty!
BOOM!
While Li Yao was thinking quickly, the fierce battle between the two demon emperors had already broken out in the underground temple!
With the biochemical armor made of the Ten Thousand Phantom Fire Ants, the Fire Ant's aura suddenly soared and he launched an attack at Elder Nether Spring!
The flame giant behind him … Since it was made of multiple Ten Thousand Phantom Fire Ants, it was naturally not limited to a fixed form. It extended its arms and instantly turned into almost a hundred tentacles. They darted toward Elder Nether Spring and the soldiers of the Nether World Watch at the same time!
"Rip!"
The front end of every tentacle blossomed like a flower bud, revealing a hideous, bloody mouth. They looked like the most ferocious man-eating flowers!
The soldiers of the Nether World Watch did not have the courage to confront the Ten Thousand Phantom Fire Ants head-on. They dodged in a hurry.
Elder Nether Spring, on the other hand, was facing almost ten 'Fire Man-Eating Flowers' casually with his hands behind his back. He did not even put on a defensive posture.
Kacha!
Almost ten 'Fire Man-Eating Flowers' lunged at Elder Nether Spring and bit him brutally.
The Ten Thousand Phantom Fire Ants flooded into Elder Nether Spring's body like magma, burning him from the inside to the outside!
Li Yao was dumbfounded. "Are you kidding me? One of the four giants of the Blood Demon Sector is so vulnerable?"
But there was no satisfaction on the Fire Ant's face at all. He was so solemn that water was almost squeezing out of his forehead.
BAM!
A moment later, Elder Nether Spring, who was enshrouded in flames, exploded into sparks that looked like fireflies that were scampering everywhere.
"This is …"
Li Yao gasped. What made up Elder Nether Spring's body was thousands of ants?
Right then, dull humming noises echoed from the hole at the top of the temple. A large cluster of green mist dripped down like thick tar and floated in midair, condensing into perfect, flawless spheres.
These green spheres were all made up of jade-like green ants.
A moment later, the green ants wriggled and blossomed into green human figures like buds.
The green ants were all translucent and looked like both jade and Coloured Glaze. Their shadows flowed like streams and turned into the image of Elder Nether Spring!
"They are biochemical beasts that can simulate the shape of human beings!"
Li Yao was extremely shocked.
As it turned out, Elder Nether Spring had been made of biochemical beasts since the beginning, and he had not sensed it at all!
Although there was a certain degree of delay and distortion when perceiving the enemy's aura through Neltharion, Li Yao did not know whether or not he would be able to distinguish the real 'Elder Nether Spring' even if he stood right in front of him!
Ten clusters of green ants turned into ten Elder Nether Springs who stood in front of the Fire Ant with the same smile on their faces.
Their eyes were half closed, as if they had just enjoyed a delicious meal. They said casually at the same time, "The Thousand Ghostly Fire Ants are made of 'Gold Fire Venomous Ants', 'Demonic Annihilation Ants', 'Purple Ring Sword Ants', and more than ten other kinds of ferocious ants as the foundation, and fed with a lot of Phoenix King Herbs, Red Glow Crystals, Soul Separation Ghosts, and other raw materials, the Thousand Ghostly Fire Ants produced can trigger a temperature of more than two thousand degrees instantly. Huh. They also boast the ability of self-detonation?
"A pretty good biochemical beast!"
Hiu!
Hardly had he concluded his sentence when the ten 'Elder Nether Springs' attacked the Fire Ant at the same time!
For a moment, more than ten green air currents and crimson flames popped up in the air and crashed into each other in spluttering noises.
Most of the 'Elder Nether Springs' were crushed and ripped apart by the Thousand Ghostly Fire Ants. However, they were all clones made of green ants. Replenished by the incessant green ants in the sky, there was no way that they could be annihilated!
In the eyes of most of the bystanders, the lightning-fast battle was perhaps just a clash of green and red light. But in Li Yao's eyes, a layer of cold sweat was popping up on his forehead!
Elder Nether Spring and the Fire Ant shared the same origin. They were both top-tier experts who could manipulate ant-like biochemical beasts, but their combat patterns were entirely different.
Li Yao was already dazzled by the armor and weapons that the Fire Ant made of countless Thousand Ghostly Fire Ants.
Elder Nether Spring, on the other hand, had made countless clones with the Phantom Green Ants. Every clone was connected to the real body in a weird way. After the clones suffered an attack, they could calculate tremendous data about the source of the attack and even grasp the nature of the enemy's attack?
"Powerful, too powerful!"
Judging from the speed, strength, and reflexes of every clone of Elder Nether Spring, Li Yao estimated that the clones all boasted the combat ability of a middle-level demon king and above!
The combat ability of the ten clones of Elder Nether Spring combined was much higher than that of ten middle-level demon kings!
It was because a person's mind was unpredictable. Even the twins who could read each other's minds could not grasp each other's every move precisely. Even the most delicate cooperation had the tiniest loophole.
The clones, on the other hand, were all manipulated by Elder Nether Spring single-handedly. They were essentially his ten fingers. Their cooperation was impeccable and unparalleled!
What was more critical was that Li Yao could not tell whether or not the real Elder Nether Spring was hiding among the clones at all!
The Fire Ant was wary of that, too.
With his capability as a demon emperor, he should not have been trapped by the clones. But his hands and feet seemed to have been tied up by invisible chains. There were many times when he could have broken out of the siege or launched a destructive strike on one of the clones, but he retreated at the last moment.
Other people might think that he was a coward, but Li Yao knew that he had made the wisest choice.
Elder Nether Spring's tactic was quite similar to the one that Xiao Xuance had used to hide inside the Grand Illusionary Soldiers at the last moment.
Why are all the super experts even more shameless than I am?
Li Yao felt that his teeth were aching. He discovered that, if he were in the Fire Ant's shoes, there would be nothing he could do about such a shameless tactic, too.
The number of the Fire Ant's Thousand Ghostly Fire Ants was limited, too. The result of the bombardment was that the fiery armor on his body and the fiery giant behind him were dimming.
Elder Nether Spring's clones were still unhurried, showing no intention of accelerating their attack.
But the soldiers of the Nether World Watch behind him were lunging at the Blade of Chaos like wolves and tigers!
What do I do?
Li Yao, who was observing the battle from below the ground, thought quickly and calculated the speed and strength of all the soldiers of the Blade of Chaos and the Nether World Watch in the underground temple in order to determine the overall combat ability of the two parties!
In the depths of his brain, hundreds of different battle scenarios appeared in an instant. They were all the most likely deductions after he joined the battle at different times.
The Nether World Watch is very strong. After the enhancement of the demon cores, more than ten of them have the combat ability of a demon king. The Blade of Chaos is no match for them at all!
They don't seem to be planning to kill the Blade of Chaos but only to wound and capture them.
Elder Nether Spring hasn't revealed his real capability yet. I wonder if he can summon more clones, and if he has more powerful ultimate moves.
Right now, I have three choices!
Firstly, I can run away immediately without caring about anything!
Secondly, I can join the battle and fight against Elder Nether Spring together with the Fire Ant!
